Weapon: Black Magic

Baten Kaitos OriginsStill escaping the Vega Base. Ran into Shannath (wearing a pretty nift Machina Arma wingsuit. He kicked our ass at first until his taunts got Sagi and his "spirit" to focus. Suddenly the match became fairer. And now that I know the Apotheosis EX combo, I'm pretty much untouchable, and Shannath's dead. Also found out Shannath's daughter's name is Savyna. Interesing twist... (see the original Baten Kaitos)

Baten Kaitos OriginsEscaped the Vega base, but our earlier monstrous change killed Quaestor Verus' shot at being emperor, so Bailheit is now the ruler of Alfard.
We returned to Hessaleh to check up on Sagi's mom. With her wings ripped out, she's in bad shape. So now i've got three choices:
Sagi can go into the past to retrieve an herb that will possibly heal his mom.
Milly wants us to go to a remote island to explain her past.
Guillo wants to visit the city of Duhr beneath the clouds to learn about his own past.

I've chosen the past route, so now I'm in the Matar highlands of 1000 years ago (and now have a way to travel freely between past and present)

F.E.A.R. [PC]:Currently in the ghetto/slums, kicking Replica ass on my way to the Vault. I've decided to stop playing so cautiously, and am having a lot more fun rushing, 'nading, and roundhouse kicking. Holiday's right, I am a BMF.

Baten kaitos OriginsMade it through the Matar highlands and picked some Heartenbrace (after defeating a giant worm monster). Got to see a dragon save us by torching a group of those giant worms. Deus Ex Machina? Gave the HeartenBrace to Gena and it healed her heart, although she's still bedridden. Next stop, Milly's past.

Baten Kaitos OriginsGot a message from Geldoblame asking me to check out a disturbance at Dark Service HQ. When I arrived there, I found the ParaMachina running rampant. They've become self aware and are trying to destroy all the humans and can only be stopped by John Connor... I mean my team.

Gran Turismo 4:
Got past the first Coffee Break. Now I'm stuck on another 1-Lap guide.

This game is hard, but it's so....friendly. They don't scold you for failing a test, they just play the ending song from "Ferris Beuler's Day Off." And they don't go "DO THIS OR DIE, MOFO!" They say "Here, try this. No no, not that. This. Trust us, it'll work."

Is that a problem? Sounds better than most 'You mess up, we mess YOU up' games out there.

One more thing, and this is off-topic: I like your sig, but if you're trying to emphasize the old-schoolness, you might want to use the 8-Bit NES sprites. It'd be more hardcore that way.

It's not a problem, it's one of the perks to the game.

I'm not trying to emphasize old-schoolness. I'm just showing my love for Nintendo and their top titles.

Baten Kaitos OriginsLearned about Millie's past by visiting her childhood play area. Defeated a giant bird and restored some rocks she had moved as a kid. Turns out those rocks were petrified people. To thank us for reuniting them, they gave us an item that makes a user invulnerable for 10 hits. WHEE!

Sidequest time. Went back to Diadem and destroyed Nasca's Machina Arma, let him live. Went to Sadaal Suud and destroyed Heughe's arma, let him live. Currently in Anuenue fighting Valera's arma

I have just completed the moat intense race in all of my experience in racing games. The challenge was called the "Millionaire challenge" which is 124.3 mile challenge around the outside of the Hawaii island. You have 60 minutes to complete the challenge and I did it in 57'20"32 on a Kawasaki Motorcycle. The reward was $1,000,000.
